It is India\u2019s first planned city and the only one that was inspired by Europe\u2019s architecture, Indian \u2018Vastu shastra\u2019, Mughal luxury and Rajputi chivalry. Such an amalgamation of culture and craftsmanship Jaipur is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The great thing about history is that we always get to see how it aged. If and when you visit Jaipur, you must see how the city of Jaipur has aged (fine wine, if you ask us). The goLOCAL experiences include a <strong>walking tour <\/strong>of the Jaipur old town.

The taste of Dal Baati and churma, Pyaaz Kachori, Gulab Ji\u2019s Chai, Ghevar, Lal Maas and so much more is so unique to Jaipur because of their incomparable taste and texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The experiences also include a morning cycling tour and a Pink city night cycling tour. After all that tasty food, you\u2019d love some cycling! Moreover, the beautiful markets for handicrafts, fabrics, clothes and jewellery are a bonus for anyone who likes to shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These experiences are created for you to experience the best these cities have to offer.
